what do you think about timetager plugin for android watch?

it seem so natural to make watch plugin just to report start tagged and end. like timer. but time is tagged and goes into tt database. so web ui does not fits here. i have heard flutter is good. that part can be closed source.

it seems flutter can do apple and android from same codebase.

I quite like the idea of an app that's brought back to the absolute minimum for use-cases such as watches!

Is it reasonable for such an app to be a web app (PWA) like the current app? Or would it have to be an Android / iOS app? From what I understand the process of submitting an actual app to the store can be rather tedious.

I am a not UI expert but seems one on PWA copy may not work well. these are very constrained and different - watch. It feels like some basic form of UI should write in flutter(for example - performance and plat). so it does only tagging part, not the timeline view.

I imagine, I start exercises and tag them. lunch, then switch to watch. something sleek.

Anyway, it feels like thin can be real up which is unique to market (so web/desktop/mobile - free, watch for fee).

Another possible requirements - working offline. So when I travel or something, I can tag but not sync.

I think about timetagger on watch often. Specifically it is much easier to me to do exercise when I started it in symbolically (e.g. wrote it on paper that I am doing so or tagged, but tagging on mobile is distractor)
